except the only visions of the future i got were of my 231st century equivilant, who lived in a world that had regressed technologically, and her actually good upbringing was slowly driving me insane as I tried to derive what had happened in the intervening millenia

i remember that i started to talk to people around me with in-jokes about a school that wouldn’t exist for thousands of years. nostalgia about a head teacher who wouldn’t even be born on Earth, but several human civilisations down the road

I wanted to play music next to school. And recorder was the cheapest option. (according to my parents.)

I don’t remember why I switched for clarinet especially. (recorder wasn’t avalaible where I went for high school.)

Far left corrupt guy could sound Romanian, except the population didn’t ever see what social democracy or what even leftism is besides totalitarian communism.

ah but you see. the Genius of the Carpathians had a better idea: what if we did highly regressive eugenics and called it communism

i don’t know it was interesting just, like. having visions of the ordinary, run-of-the-mill life of a better future too far away for anyone to measure, of the life of someone very much like me, and because of the time I live in now, I just tried to figure out how it happened so I could make it happen. having narrativdely interesting dreams is very useful for a writer, it makes it far easier to refine weird shit into usable sci-fi
